A member asked:

I have recently noticed a tingling sensation/feeling in my hands and some my fingertips, is that carpal tunnel?

Possibly: There can be several reasons for these symtoms. Not having this worked up by your doctor could lead to permanent damage to the nerves.

Could be: This certainly could be a cause among many other possible causes. An evaluation by a physician will better elucidate the cause.
